About Carol A. Dorsey

Visionary. Trailblazer. Legacy Builder.

Carol A. Dorsey is a multi-hyphenate entrepreneur who has broken barriers in entertainment, education, and empowerment. From launching chart-topping music to mentoring the next generation of female leaders, her impact spans industries and regions.

As the former CEO of Chopper City Records, she helped catapult her nephew, Christopher “B.G.” Dorsey of The Hot Boys, into solo stardom. Under her leadership, Chopper City sold over 1.5 million records independently, secured major label deals with Atlantic, Warner Bros., Koch, and built a blueprint for independent music success.

Under her direction, the label released multiple hit projects with impressive sales:

• Living Legend – 295,000+ copies

• Life After Cash Money – 298,000+

• Heart of the Streets Vol. 1 & 2 – 600,000+ combined

• Too Hood to Be Hollywood (Atlantic) – 250,000+

• We Got This – 100,000+

• Life in the Concrete Jungle (Mixtape) – 75,000+

“I’ve studied this business from the basement to the penthouse—mastering each level along the way.”

​

Now as the Founder of Madd Money Entertainment, Carol is leading a new movement—developing independent artists, DJs, models, and producers across the U.S. in partnership with Wide Open Mgmt. (L. Garrett) in Detroit.

Carol is also the founder of:

• Carol A. Dorsey Consulting Firm – Tax, finance & business solutions for entrepreneurs

• Girrl Chat Talk Show – Relaunching September 2025 as a bold, fresh platform for real conversations

• Elite Women Organization – Uplifting and empowering women in business & leadership

• Keep The School Safe, Inc. – A nonprofit focused on school safety, mentorship & education access

Legacy Over Hype

Carol Dorsey’s story is about more than music, media, or management. It’s about building sustainable empires, amplifying unheard voices, and turning dreams into tangible realities—especially for those who’ve long been overlooked by the mainstream.
